Answer:

B) A stack of books is carried at waist level across a room

Explanation:

Work is defined as:

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the force applied

d is the displacement of the object

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

From the formula, we see that the work done is zero when the force and the displacement are perpendicular to each other. Let's now analyze each situation:

A) A bookcase is slid across carpeting. --> work is done, because the force that pushes the bookcase is in the same direction of the displacement

B) A stack of books is carried at waist level across a room. --> no work is done, because the force to carry the book is vertical, while the displacement of the books is horizontal

C) A chair is lifted vertically with respect to the floor. --> work is done, because the force that lifts the chair is vertical, and the displacement is vertical as well

D) A table is dropped onto the ground. --> work is done, because the force of gravity (that makes the table falling down) is vertical and the displacement of the table is also vertical.

A rectangular coil of dimensions 5.40cm x 8.50cm consists of25 turns of wire. The coil carries a current of 15.0 mA.
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

(a) Magnetic moment will be 17.212\times 10^{-4}A-m^2

(b) Torque will be 6.024\times 10^{-4}N-m

Explanation:

We have given dimension of the rectangular 5.4 cm × 8.5 cm

So area of the rectangular coil A=5.4\times 8.5=45.9cm^2=45.9\times 10^{-4}m^2

Current is given as i=15mA=15\times 10^{-3}A

Number of turns N = 25

(A) We know that magnetic moment is given by magnetic\ moment=NiA=25\times 45.9\times 10^{-4}\times 15\times 10^{-3}=17.212\times 10^{-4}A-m^2

(b) Magnetic field is given as B = 0.350 T

We know that torque is given by \tau =BINA=0.350\times 15\times 10^{-3}\times 25\times 45.9\times 10^{-4}=6.024\times 10^{-4}N-m

A car with a mass of 600 kg is traveling at a velocity of 10 m/s. How much kinetic energy does it have?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

KE = 30,000 J

Explanation:

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv²

KE = \frac{1}{2} (600)(10)²

KE = \frac{1}{2} (600)(100)

KE = \frac{1}{2} (60000)

KE = 30,000 J

Based on the second law of thermodynamics, how would you expect a system to change over time?
deff fn [24]

B. It's randomness would increase

Because the Second Law of Thermodynamics states that as energy is transferred or transformed, more and more of it is wasted. It also states that there is a natural tendency of any isolated system to degenerate into a more disordered state.
